Dear Sir/Madam,


My name is Maria Bxxxxxx, I write to you on behalf of myself and my parents, Mr P Malone and Mrs V Malone.


My Brother, and former British Paratrooper Anthony Malone is being held in the Pul-e-Charkhi prison in Kabul, Afghanistan. Anthony has served a sentence of two years for fraud but two and a half years later he is still being held because he can’t pay the alleged debt, which we believe is a clear violation of international law.


Anthony has had very little legal representation so far, or translations of any court proceedings or written explanations of any charges and evidence against him, also he has been unable to call witnesses and present evidence in his defence.


Anthony went to Afghanistan in 2002 to set up a security-and-logistics business. He fell foul of a senior Afghan politician, who claims Anthony owes him money, which he denies. Initially he was convicted of debt, even though it's not a criminal offence, and sentenced to ten months in prison. He was due for release in November 2008. However, the public prosecutor refused to release him on the grounds that he owed money to the Afghan people. He successfully appealed his conviction and had it dismissed.
Then, a few days later, he was taken back to court and re-convicted on six counts of fraud. He was sentenced to two years, to be served from the date of his original sentence, and should therefore have been due for release on January 23 this year. But in a catch-22 situation, the Afghan authorities are once again refusing to release him until he has paid the alleged debt.


We are a desperate to help Anthony and would very much appreciate any support you might be able to offer. We appeal to your sense of what is right and just, to help release my Brother from the horrific conditions and treatment he is enduring.


If you would like more information please don‘t hesitate to contact myself or my Father on the details below.


We look forward to your response,

Yours faithfully,


Maria Bxxxxxx
